Goodwill paid $1.4 million for the building and 1.7 acre lot, purchasing it Thursday from Frick & Frack LLC, according to Montgomery County property records.
The retail store could open by fall of next year, Fowler said.
The restaurant building would be torn down and Goodwill would build a 15,000-square-foot store in its place. About 24 full and part-time employees could work at the store.
Goodwill broke ground for a new retail thrift store in Huber Heights in October.
Goodwill, which serves a 23-county area, has 27 retail thrift stores, an online store, and an auto auction.
